Chapter 177: 289
Chapter 289 Attack on the Shelter
"Lord Argus, please believe in Lord Abathur, believe in the Monget Dynasty. We cannot miss this opportunity to leave Comoros! Do you want to be trapped in Comoros forever? Aren't the days here hard enough? Don't you want to return to your regiment?"
Burns said anxiously that although the existence of the SCV gave him considerable prestige here, more survivors still chose to believe these Astartes. If they wanted everyone to follow them and leave Comoros, they could not do without the help of Argus.
He must have the support of these Astartes.
After a brief silence, Argus also made a decision. Now he really had no one else to rely on. Even if his own regiment knew that he was still alive, they would not attack Comoros again because of him.
It is even more unlikely that the Empire would launch a war against Comoros without any interests in mind.
And the only one who was willing to spend such a huge amount of money to take them out was Gao Yi.
"I understand, Abathur. The humans will cooperate with you. But Burns, we don't know if there are any spies among us. We can only tell everyone the news on the last day."
"I understand. The soldiers of our dynasty can be trusted. I will try my best to prepare the supplies in secret."
Burns was relieved to hear Agus agree.
The constructed barracks provided the more than 20,000 human survivors with at least one set of combat uniform, and when they were gathered together they formed a considerable force.
Just as Argus and others were about to leave, Abathur suddenly sensed something abnormal on the fungal blanket.
One by one, the poisonous fungus blankets were detonated.
"Burns, Argus, many, many Eldar are entering the lower level, unprecedented numbers, and you humans must be prepared! My swarm will stop them."
The information transmitted from the fungal blanket allowed Abathur to immediately sense a large number of signals that did not belong to humans or Zerg.
The number of them far exceeds any previous action on the bottom layer, and some of the creatures are moving towards the human shelters at a very fast speed.
The Dark Eldar who had invaded the bottom layer before were individual troops that entered because of the bounty, but this time it was a real war.
The number and scale of these enemies are so large that even Abathur needs to deal with them with all his strength.
The Zerg stationed at the entrance to the lower level had already begun to fight with these Dark Eldars, but they were unable to stop them, and the Dark Eldar troops continued to advance.
Hearing Abathur's words, both of them felt their scalps tingling. They hadn't even started to act yet, but the Dark Eldar had already taken action? !
"Lord Argus?! Are we exposed?!"
"It's impossible that we just got the news. How could the traitors in the shelter know it so quickly? It's impossible for them to get this information in such a short time. The location of the shelter may have been leaked a long time ago. However, the threat of the Zerg is far greater than ours. Sending troops to wipe us out is not worth it!"
But no matter what the truth is, the enemy is heading towards their stronghold, and they must be prepared to fight or even transfer. Fortunately, the location of the shelter is deep enough and there are alien insects blocking the way along the way, so it will take a lot of time to reach their stronghold.
Thinking of their compatriots in the shelter who were still unaware of the situation, the two dared not stop at all and immediately rode on their Zerglings towards the shelter, while Abathur also began to mobilize his own swarm of insects.
A large number of Zerg began to move towards the Dark Eldar army's position.
A brutal war is taking place at the entrance, with the Dark Eldar using countless slaves and modified creatures as cannon fodder.
The familiarity with the Zerg War over the past two years, coupled with Tevantias's research, has also confirmed that the Zerg, like the Tyranids, require large amounts of biomass.
Meltas and flamethrowers cleared the endless fungal blankets, while slaves used their lives to detonate hidden toxic explosion nests to open the way for the Dark Eldar army.
Seeing the slaves being completely melted by the acid, the Dark Eldar supervising the battle from behind did not feel any heartache.
The number of slaves in the Comoros is unimaginable.
God knows how many slaves have been surviving in the boundless area of Comoros for countless years. As long as the slave-hunting teams are willing, they can always capture the surviving slaves of various races.
The lives melted by the acid were quickly absorbed by the fungal blanket, and the Dark Eldar warriors in the rear burned the corpses on the fungal blanket as quickly as possible.
Feeling the tremors under their feet and the countless roars coming from the darkness in the distance, the Dark Eldar also knew that a large group of Zerg were coming.
The Dark Eldar did not have much enthusiasm for the upcoming battle.
Fighting creatures like the Zerg does not provide them with any painful emotions at all.
While the Dark Eldar were engaging in a bloody battle with the Zerg.
A group of pale-skinned ghouls were galloping through the bottom layer at this time. There were no other dark elves troops around them, and the direction they were heading was exactly where the human shelter was.
Just as Burns and Argus thought, there were still traitors who defected to the Dark Eldar in the refuge.
Even with humanity's current situation and the protection of the Zerg, these traitors still don't think humanity can survive an attack by the Dark Eldar.
The increasingly safe situation allowed Burns and others to begin to fix the shelter that could be moved at any time, and built it more complete and solid, but it was precisely this act of fixing the base that exposed their position.
During one of their raids against the Dark Eldar, a traitor left behind intelligence indicating the direction of the sanctuary.
At this time, this group of pale zombies were relying on their extremely sharp sense of smell to move in the direction indicated by the intelligence, and were looking for the smell of humans to determine the specific location of the shelter.
The alien insects along the way rushed towards them, but they did not stop at all. They had a clear goal. Under the control of the Dark Eldar trainers, their only task was to determine the location of the human shelter, not to fight.
Behind this group of zombies, nearly a hundred clowns gathered together and followed these zombies. Such a large number of clowns could only gather during the clowns' gatherings that only occurred once every few decades.
At the call of the Laughing God, they came to Comoros from all over the galaxy to assist Victor in consolidating his rule and completing the deal between them.
At this time, the clowns were wearing their holographic suits and moving at an extremely fast speed. The anti-gravity belts allowed them to control the nearby gravity and avoid the nearby fungal blanket.
They will also help the ghouls eliminate targets that pose a major threat.
The eyeworms and kingworms floating nearby are the key targets for cleaning.
During the previous assassination attempt on Gao Yi, Lemuel knew the special nature of these king insects. After killing these king insects, the actions of the alien insects attacking the zombies slowed down or even stagnated.
And this time, there are more than just clowns in the team that attacks the human refuge.
In the dark dimension, two hundred special creatures named Mandrake are leaving the real dimension and approaching the human refuge.
The dark environment at the bottom level is a perfect hiding place for them.
These creatures living in the dark dimension can theoretically use darkness to reach any location where there is no light.
Imagine that a monster covered in black suddenly appears in your bed.
